Taiji sword is different from other swords. Its movements are delicate and generous, chic and elegant, graceful and calm. It has both the value of fighting and fitness and the value of appreciation. How to practice taiji sword well? Tell me about my experience. Generally speaking, in the process of practicing Taijiquan, we should pay attention to the hand, eye, body, method and the step requirements of each movement, which are divided into the primary stage and the improvement stage. The primary stage requires clear swordsmanship, correct movements and basically coherent movements.

1. The swordsmanship is clear and the action is correct.

To practice Tai Ji Chuan, we must first understand the characteristics, requirements, essentials and differences of various swordsmanship. When you start practicing, you'd better practice according to the name of the action.

2. The movements are basically coherent.

In order to make the movements basically coherent, it is necessary to master the joint movements between various swordsmanship. Requirements for improvement stage: accurate fencing and coordinated movements; Loose and natural, firm and smooth; Appropriate speed and obvious rhythm; Continuous, chic and elegant; Although there is no opponent, but defeat the strong enemy; Every family has outstanding style and style.

1. Accurate fencing and coordinated movements.

The primary stage only requires clear swordsmanship and correct movements; In the improvement stage, it is required to be accurate in fencing, not only to understand fencing, but also to be clear about fencing.

Fencing is complex, which requires a high degree of coordination with the human body. Harmony is the foundation of beauty and strength. How can we achieve coordination?

① Full body relaxation: Full body relaxation for coordination;

(2) Taking the waist as the axis: Taking the waist as the axis, it is easy to coordinate other parts of the body through the rotation of the waist;

③ Finger-to-finger coordination: When practicing Taiji sword, it is required to know the function and action route of the hilt, which means that the finger is open and closed, tacit and naturally coordinated with the sword;

④ Time-sharing between reality and reality: When practicing Taiji sword, it is also required to pay attention to the change of heart. The last step is to keep the center of gravity unchanged, and then slowly change the center of gravity to the next action. The change of the center of gravity and the fixed action should be in place at the same time, which needs coordination. If you feel uncoordinated and your strength is not smooth during the exercise, check whether the movements of upper and lower limbs are appropriate; Whether the rotation of waist matches the movements of limbs: whether the specifications of fencing and the lines of movements are correct; Whether the timing of acceleration is appropriate, etc.

2. Loose and natural, firm and smooth

Require the waist to relax, sink across, and move calmly; The strength of swordsmanship is accurate and coordinated; Strength penetrates from the waist to the wrist.

3. Appropriate speed and obvious rhythm

Don't be too fast at the beginning, mainly to find out the action route and pay attention to the correctness of the posture. Later, after skilled movements, the speed can be accelerated, and at the same time, the rhythm of Taiji sword is both rigid and flexible, high and low; The priorities of strength are large and small; The rhythm of alternating speed. When practicing martial arts as a taiji sword, we should pay special attention to slowness and slowness. When practicing competition routines, you can master the speed according to the corresponding music first.

4. Continuous, unique and elegant

The primary stage requires basic coherence, and the improvement stage requires continuity and elegance. This requires a careful study of the connection between each action. The key point is to make good use of waist strength and pay attention to the small movements of opening and closing.

5. Although there is no opponent, but beat the strong enemy.

Taiji sword is a kind of martial arts equipment and the king of hundreds of soldiers. It has a strong offensive and defensive meaning. So, what are the offensive and defensive functions of the swordsmanship used in each action? We must make it clear and study it in depth. Although it is usually a solo exercise, you must have a strong sense of attack and defense.

6. Every family has outstanding style and style.

All kinds of Taiji swords have their own styles and characteristics, and everyone has their own styles. When practicing, we should grasp various characteristics and develop our own style. When practicing competition routines, we should pay attention to the requirements of action norms and be as generous as possible. 1. The swordsmanship is neck and neck.

The swordsmanship is wrong, and some swordsmanship can't be distinguished. Pay attention to the following confusing swordsmanship: point sword and split sword; Stop and sweep the sword; Raise your sword and sweep it; Stab the sword and hold the sword.

2. ups and downs

Taiji sword, like Tai Ji Chuan, can't rise and fall, let alone stand and practice straight. Older people can have higher qualifications, but the pace should meet the requirements.

3. The sword won't walk in a vertical circle.

When practicing Taijiquan, hanging and lifting swords should be close to the body and stand in a circle, which many people cannot do. The reason is that the fencing route is not clear, or the waist is not enough.

4. The usage of sword finger is not clear

Beginners don't know where to put the finger of Tai Chi sword, and they take the wrong route. The reason is that they don't know the function and route of the sword finger. Sword lifting is generally used to urge and gain strength or cooperate with the opening and closing of the sword.

5. Inconsistency and incoherence

Coordination is the basic requirement for practicing Tai Ji Chuan, and those who practice Tai Ji Chuan should make great efforts in this respect.

6. The armpit is not empty

Taiji sword, like Tai Ji Chuan, needs to drill an empty armpit. For example, the swordsman should not be too straight, and his hands should be round.

7. Hold the sword too tightly

When practicing Tai Ji Chuan, you should hold the sword loosely and have flexible wrists, so as to complete all kinds of fencing movements well.

8. lower your eyes

When practicing taiji sword, you should follow the sword or look at the front and the other side. Beginners of Taijiquan should not form the bad habit of looking down.
